The time is coming! October is almost here! It’s finally one of my favorite times of the year. Don’t you just love fall?

Football!

Pretty colors!

Campfires! (Which means Peeps roasts!)

Great temperatures with heat of summer gone but not yet stuck with snow!

Corn mazes!

Silly pumpkin carving!

Delicious seasonal coffee!

Delicious seasonal foods!

Haunted houses!

Cuddling is the best when it gets cool!

What is the best thing about October? Well anyone who has read here for a while knows what is coming next.

HALLOWEEN PEEPS!

Oh wait. Is that not what you thought I was going to say? There is something else and the 30 day countdown has begun. SCONY’s Mountain Weekend!

I’m so excited to see all my friends again and meet some new ones. SCONY makes me think of the theme song from Cheers. It is the one place I can go and be surrounded by friends and people actually remember my freaking name (and say it right, unless they’re just being jerks)!

Speaking of Peeps, I had forgotten about a pic I took a few weeks ago when Halloween stuff started showing up around here. I was going to send you a pic of ones I've never seen before but I then I assumed that you, being the ultimate authority on Peeps, would have already encountered these ones….they were chocolate flavored cats. I don't know how old they are, but this is the first year I have seen them 🙂 ~sugar

@sugar, Thanks for thinking of me! 🙂 I have had the chocolate cats and they're pretty good. But if a person hates Peeps to begin with, the chocolate mousse ones are even worse to them. I've discovered this.

@Jane, I wish you were too! It's been too long!

@Kenzie, It is a great time of year! Thanks, I'm sure it'll be a blast.

@slavemala, Thanks for your comment! You can't have pumpkin pie where you are?
